Midstage Travelers & Rear Travelers

These curtains are used to divide the stage and turn it into a smaller acting area. They are also used to hide equipment and mask areas upstage of the proscenium curtains leaving an entry way to the stage in between curtain sets. Mid and Rear Travelers are usually made with fullness (pleated) and consist of two panels that part from the center and stack on the sides. Since these curtains are usually exposed to “heavy on-stage traffic”; while not necessary, often times it is recommended for the drapes to be lined to protect the face fabric, adding years of life to the curtain and also helping with opacity.
